Chapter 128 Edge Line of Defense(1/2)
"Blocking device release rate?"
"The current progress is 60% as originally scheduled!"
After the headquarters of the United Army approved a large-scale application for reaction bombs, Captain Grofoe immediately let the zenith star warship full of reaction bombs jump near the Kuiper belt, walking the missiles while acting as the reconnaissance post.
It has been less than a week since the basic fleet arrived in the solar system. And Exido said that according to speculation, the other party is likely to have arrived at the Canis Grand Dwarf galaxy, which is 25,000 light-years away from the solar system. If it is a long-distance leap, it is not difficult to arrive within one or two days.
The reaction bomb has been fully strolled to the Olt Cloud and the Kuiper belt, but the most important barrier device has just been completed
Because of the incompatibility of technology, Chang Wei completely understood the principle of the barrier device on the fifth day after obtaining the technology
The factory then carried out production without interruption, and because some of the materials were scarce on Macross, Captain Grove again applied for materials from the headquarters.
And this time, he welcomed an unexpected person
"Captain Hayase!"
Before leaving Macross, Misa Hayase made it clear that she might not come back; this time, she was the person responsible for transporting these supplies, and Misa Hayase said that Admiral Hayase had approved her to return to Macross again.
Those who came with her were her guard for nearly a month, Yi Hui
"Thank you two, thank you for your hard work."
"Captain, this is a new order from the headquarters"
Captain Grofoe borrowed the order book and took a quick look. Several of the messages made him see some hope.
"Is the headquarters willing to help build the inner solar system defense line... It's great..."
The solar system defense line is divided into four layers. The first layer is the edge defense line proposed by Beiyu, the Ort Cloud and the Kuiper belt.
The second layer is the outer solar system defense line that starts from Jupiter and extends to Pluto.
(PS: Here, the concept of the outer solar system is one of the concepts of the solar system, that is, the solar system refers to the area between the sun and the asteroid belt in the solar system. Outside this area, to the boundary of the solar system, is considered to be the outer solar system, that is, starting from Jupiter and extending to the Coyber belt or the Ort Cloud)
The third layer is an inner ring defense line constructed by the asteroid belt and Mars
The last layer is the absolute defense line on the earth and moon track
On the last page of the plan, it is clearly stated that as long as the enemy fleet breaks through the inner ring defense line, the "super cannon" underground at the headquarters will carry out indiscriminate shooting
There is no way to do this. I am afraid that by that time, the earth will really perish.
"I understand, thank you"
After Hayase Misa and Ichiki left, Captain Grofoe pondered for a moment and opened up another communication
"Please help me transfer it to Admiral Hayase"
hangar
"Captain, are you in good health?"
Looking at Roy Foka who was putting on his driving suit again, Beiyu put down the tools in his hand and saluted directly
"Haha, this kind of small injury doesn't hurt or itch to me!"
Roy Foca still looked careless. He was just discharged from the hospital yesterday, but today he returned to the army despite everyone's opposition.
"Where is my fighter plane? I'm going to go outside for a walk."
"Your fighter plane is there, it's been maintained and can take off at any time."
After several months, Roy Foca saw his love aircraft - VF1S. The surface of the body was shiny, and missiles were hung on the weapon stand under the wings. The cockpit was cleaned very clean. As Beiyu said, it could take off at any time.
"Ancestor!"
"Yo! Hui, long time no see!"
After passing by the hangar, Akihiro glanced around and saw the long-lost figure sitting on the VF1S. He immediately stopped talking to Misa Hayase and ran over.
"Have your body recovered so well?"
"Of course, do you want to go out for a walk?"
"The air ban outside has been issued for non-combat times, and even if you say so, you can't get out."
Roy Foca had heard Goliath, who had been taking care of him, talk about recent events. Suddenly, 1,000 additional zenith star warships were added to cooperate with the earth. He was very surprised.
Kuiper belt
A hybrid fleet of Earth and Zen Star Warships, each warship is connected to the front of each warship, a giant armor plate that can cover the entire warship.
Although the appearance is not outstanding, this is Chang Wei's own "optimal solution". With such a huge size, in addition to defending ships, it also has to block the leap.
The armor plate is filled with gravity control devices. Combined with the technology given by Beiyu, every 5 warships jointly start the device. The chain reaction can cause gravity changes of radius 0.1 light second (29,000 kilometers) and forcibly block the basic fleet in the leap.
Every soldier who came to the edge of the defense was ready to die
“How is the situation?”
"Report! No long-distance leap energy response has been detected!"
The commander-in-chief of the hybrid fleet was a retired soldier of the former General Army, with a major general. He heard that the basic fleet was going to attack the earth and voluntarily returned to the army to fight again.
He knew that it would be difficult for him to return to Earth alive, just think that this was his last contribution to protecting this Earth
"Ahem..."
"Captain, go and have a rest, your body"
"No serious problem"
The elderly general waved his hand and threw the window into the interstellar space outside the ship.
"Xiao Wang, you said, how long can a fleet of nearly 5 million be destroyed?"
"this……"
The deputy captain thought for a long time, gritted his teeth and said
“We will not be destroyed by them”
“Good saying”
The captain's eyes were full of praise
"Whether we can defend the earth depends on our edge defense..."
Although the headquarters has already rushed to produce warships, it is like a drop in the bucket for 5 million.
The alarm suddenly sounded
"Captain! Long-distance leap reaction was detected!"
"Are you finally here...Maximum power start blocking device! Be sure to block them outside the edge defense line!"
...
"What's going on?"
This time Bartzan went on the expedition in person and felt the slight vibration of the ship. He raised his eyelids and asked the soldiers under the bridge.
"The entire fleet forced the end of the leap"
“Forced end?”
"Yes, because the gravity coefficient in the nearby airspace changes abnormally, continuing to sail may deviate from the predetermined target."
"Well... it seems that it was caused by the miniature man and Bullytai..."
Before Batzando could think about it, another soldier began to report the sudden injury report.
"Commander, the other party used a reaction weapon! Our fleet began to suffer damage."
Although the number of fleets has been estimated, when it really appears in front of you, everyone in the command ship was shocked.
"Ship, captain..."
From here, there was no starry sky, all covered by warships painted by the dark green of the Zen Star. The eldest mate's legs became weak and he fell to the ground.
"Don't be afraid! The space fighter troops attack!"
The space fighter unit that received the order, although the soldiers were afraid, this battle could no longer be avoided.
The first inter-star war kicked off
The reaction bomb thunder that had been spread long ago, and the damage of the basic fleet rose sharply. In just less than five minutes of the war, they lost more than 10,000 light attack ships.
Seeing that there were only more than a hundred ships on the other side, Batzan realized that he had fallen into a trap and immediately ordered the firepower of all ships to be concentrated on the mixed fleet.
Ten minutes after the war
"How is the battle?"
"Our loss rate is 30%! The areas of B2, E5, J10, X24, and Z26 have been broken through! All the space fighter troops are destroyed!"
"Let the surrounding fleets go to support!"
"yes!"
The reaction bomb has been detonated by nearly 40%, but Batzan has only damaged nearly 100,000 warships, which will not affect the combat at all for the entire basic fleet.
Originally, the edge defense line was established to consume the vanguard troops of the basic fleet as much as possible, so that in subsequent battles, they could break through the opponent's fleet faster and take the opponent's flagship directly.
To be continued...
